Ibyaha byanjye, Yesu

Yarabyikoreye,

W’ atigeze gukora

Icyaha na kimwe;

Ndamwegera, ndasenga,

Nd’ umunyabvaha pe,

Nizer’ ijambo ry’ ati:

Urababariwe !

(My sins, Jesus)

(Bore them himself,)

(He who never did)

(Even one sin;)

(I approach him, I pray,)

(I'm a sinner,)

(I believe the word that says:)

(You are forgiven!)

2.

Maz’ ibindushya byose

Ndabimukorera

Nta wand’ utari Yesu

Wabyihanganira

Ndamwegera, njy’ ahw ari,

Ndushye, ntentebutse,

Ndagenda, mpaw’ intege,

Nsindishirijwe pe !

(Then all the new things)

(I do for him)

(No one else but Jesus)

(Would endure them)

(I approach him, where I am,)

(Naked, unashamed,)

(I go, without strength,)

(Not encouraged!)

3.

Nukw amaganya yanjye,

Nyakurwaho na We,

Nduhukira muri We,

Amp’ amahoro ye

Imanuweli Kristo,

Zina rihebuje !

Rimbera nk’ imibavu,

Ihumura neza

(And then my troubles,)

(Are also taken away by Him,)

(I rest in Him,)

(He gives me his peace)

(Immanuel Christ,)

(Glorious name!)

(It sounds like balm,)

(That comforts well)

4.

Icyampa nkaba nka We,

Akamp’ ineza ye,

N’ imbabazi n’ ubuntu

N’ ubugwaneza bye

Yes’ uzampe gutura

I wawe mw ijuru,

Nkajya ngusingizanya

N’ abamarayika

(What will make me like Him,)

(Give me his grace,)

(And mercy and kindness)

(And his compassion)

(Jesus will give me to dwell)

(In his in heaven,)

(I will go and sing praises)

(With the angels)
